Provide close and constant attention to children you are supervising in or near water.
- Swim in designated areas supervised by lifeguards. Always swim with a buddy; do not allow anyone to swim alone.
- Provide close and constant attention to children you are supervising, even when a lifeguard is present, no matter how well the child can swim or how shallow the water. Avoid distractions including cell phones.
- Never leave a young child unattended near water and do not trust a child’s life to another child; teach children to always ask permission to go near water.
Use layers of protection and exercise wise caution
- Stay within an arm’s reach of any weak or inexperienced swimmer who is in the water.
- Have young children or inexperienced swimmers wear Coast Guard-approved life jackets around water, but do not rely on life jackets alone.
- Do not rely on the use of water wings, swim rings, inflatable toys, or other items designed for water recreation to replace adult supervision.
- If you have a pool, secure it with appropriate barriers to prevent unsupervised access to the water.
- Many children who drown in home pools did so during non-swim times—when they weren’t expected to be in the water, including as the swimming activity was coming to an end and everyone was thought to be out of the water.
- Children were often out of sight for less than 5 minutes and in the care of one or both parents at the time.
Ensure that everyone in the family learns to swim well and what to do in a water emergency.
- Teach your family how to swim well.
- Learn what to do if someone is in trouble in the water.
- If a child goes missing, always check the water first—every second matters.
- Keep safety tools nearby: something to throw or reach with, a phone, life jackets, and a first aid kit.
Swimming is a valuable life skill, but water safety takes more than just knowing how to swim. By staying alert, using layers of protection, and making sure every family member knows what to do in an emergency, you can help prevent accidents and save lives. Whether you’re at the pool, beach, or lake, always put safety first—because a few smart choices can make all the difference.

Frequently asked questions
Start by letting them play in shallow water under close supervision. Use toys, games, and positive reinforcement to create a fun and safe environment. Never force them into the water if they’re afraid—build trust gradually.
Lifeguards provide general oversight but can’t monitor every swimmer constantly. Drowning can happen quickly and silently, so a responsible adult should always provide direct, focused supervision.
These are not safety devices and should never replace adult supervision. Only use Coast Guard-approved life jackets for non-swimmers or weak swimmers.
